Answer: 197,443,926,105,102,399,225,573,693

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we use combination which is the selection of all or part of a set of objects or items without considering the order of selection.

Mathematically, The number of 'r' combinations from 'n' elements is given as :

nCr = n!÷((n-r)!r!)

From the question above :

n=99 r=66

99C66 = 99!÷((99-66)!66!)

99!÷(33!66!) = 197,443,926,105,102,399,225,573,693

There are 197,443,926,105,102,399,225,573,693 different possible routes.
